Hiya all...
I am thinking of modding my mini M-G ... (Again) ... using a Lux III which i have at my disposal (got it as a gift from Warren, when i purchased 2 Nuwai QIII's /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif ). Since i do not want to use a converter (just as yet, experimenting first) i want to Direct Drive the Lux III ... from 2 Alkaline (Duracell Ultra's) having O.C. voltage of 1.55 Volts
I do not know what kind of bin code is LED because its a hi-dome Emitter.... (nothing is printed on back) ....
So How Good / Bad will this be ?
I tried to drive it using a CR2032 Cell, and its BRIGHT /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif ... well the current was limited to 60 mA .... i do not want to take any risk... driving this directly by Alkaline... (fear that it might BLOW off)... and its the only one that i have currently....
Also, which kind of "optic" will drect fit the mini M-G 2AA, the Dia is about 22 mm (for the orignal optic) ... Is it possible to use a "Reflector" instead of an "Optic" ?
Thanks in Advance,
ViReN
